Hello. I have recently calibrated my printer. It was properly aligned before, but after aligning, it seems that it is now misaligned. I repeated the process over 20x and already used a quarter of my ink, but it still doesn't align properly

Fixed: Re: Alignment - HP Support Community - 7649867 

Also use the paper type "HP Advanced Photo Paper" instead (only applies if you have a genuine cartridge OR HP Solution Center detected the cartridges as genuine. Reference (from HP Solution Center > Printer Settings > Features) 

 

I'm not gonna use the alignment tool ever again...
